# DMKSPSetComputeInitialGuess
set `KSP` initial guess evaluation function 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode DMKSPSetComputeInitialGuess(DM dm, PetscErrorCode (*func)(KSP, Vec, void *), void *ctx)
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***dm -*** `DM` to be used with `KSP`
- ***func -*** initial guess evaluation function, see `KSPSetComputeInitialGuess()` for calling sequence
- ***ctx -*** context for right hand side evaluation





## Note
`KSPSetComputeInitialGuess()` is normally used, but it calls this function internally because the user context is actually
associated with the `DM`.
